Time Travel Mechanics

• Using time travel to replace deceased characters with duplicates just before their death can revive them without repercussions.
• Rescue endangered species members from the brink of extinction and breed them to revive entire species.
• Currently, time travel only allows going back in time; traveling to the future is not possible.

Story Progression

• The main story events occur on a semi-random schedule determined at the start of each new game, making multiple playthroughs less predictable.
• Completing the main story campaign can take between 75 to 95 turns.

Recruitment and Relationships

• Courtesans are necessary for recruiting some named NPCs but do not necessarily involve cuckolding or sexual relations.
• You can recruit courtesans as companions without engaging in intimate relationships to boost your Persuasion stat.
• Maintain a large group of recruits, friend-zoning 2-3 characters if needed.
• Keep a medium-sized number of followers around for optimal gameplay, as both too few and too many can be problematic.
• Constructible outposts like the War Sanctum and Cloister of Eros allow dismissed followers to maintain their Strength and Persuasion stats while reducing on-site follower count after turn 80.

Health Management

• Resting does not always recover health; it may take several turns before health is restored.

Recruitment Strategies
